Ex vivo characterization of allo-MHC-restricted T cells specific for a single MHC-peptide complex.

Alloreactive T cells are thought to be a potentially rich source of high-avidity T cells with therapeutic potential since tolerance to self-Ags is restricted to self-MHC recognition. Given the particularly high frequency of alloreactive T cells in the peripheral immune system, we used numerous MHC class I multimers to directly visualize and isolate viral and tumor Ag-specific alloreactive CD8 T cells. In fact, all but one specificities screened were undetectable in ex vivo labeling. In this study, we report the occurrence of CD8 T cells specifically labeled with allo-HLA-A*0201/Melan-A/MART-1(26-35) multimers at frequencies that are in the range of 10(-4) CD8 T cells and are thus detectable ex vivo by flow cytometry. We report the thymic generation and shaping of tumor Ag-specific, alloreactive T cells as well as their fate once seeded in the periphery. We show that these cells resemble their counterparts in HLA-A*0201-positive individuals, based on their structural and functional attributes.

Comparative assessment of intimal hyperplasia development after 14 days in two different experimental settings: tissue culture versus ex vivo continuous perfusion of human saphenous vein.

BACKGROUND: Intimal hyperplasia (IH) is a vascular remodeling process which often leads to failure of arterial bypass or hemodialysis access. Experimental and clinical work have provided insight in IH development; however, further studies under precise controlled conditions are required to improve therapeutic strategies to inhibit IH development. Ex vivo perfusion of human vessel segments under standardized hemodynamic conditions may provide an adequate experimental approach for this purpose. Therefore, chronically perfused venous segments were studied and compared to traditional static culture procedures with regard to functional and histomorphologic characteristics as well as gene expression. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Static vein culture allowing high tissue viability was performed as previously described. Ex vivo vein support system (EVVSS) was performed using a vein support system consisting of an incubator with a perfusion chamber and a pump. EVVSS allows vessel perfusion under continuous flow while maintaining controlled hemodynamic conditions. Each human saphenous vein was divided in two parts, one cultured in a Pyrex dish and the other part perfused in EVVSS for 14days. Testing of vasomotion, histomorphometry, expression of CD 31, Factor VIII, MIB 1, alpha-actin, and PAI-l were determined before and after 14days of either experimental conditions. RESULTS: Human venous segments cultured under traditional or perfused conditions exhibited similar IH after 14 days as shown by histomorphometry. Smooth-muscle cell (SMC) was preserved after chronic perfusion. Although integrity of both endothelial and smooth-muscle cells appears to be maintained in both culture conditions as confirmed by CD31, factor VIII, and alpha-actin expression, a few smooth-muscle cells in the media stained positive for factor VIII. Cell-proliferation marker MIB-1 was also detected in the two settings and PAI-1 mRNA expression and activity increased significantly after 14 days of culture and perfusion. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates the feasibility to chronically perfuse human vessels under sterile conditions with preservation of cellular integrity and vascular contractility. To gain insights into the mechanisms leading to IH, it will now be possible to study vascular remodeling not only under static conditions but also in hemodynamic environment mimicking as closely as possible the flow conditions encountered in reconstructive vascular surgery.

The Challenge of Housing for Ex-Offenders, Data Download, Iowa Department of Corrections, September 2010

On October 5, 2010 there were 25,829 probationers and parolees (including special sentence) under community-based corrections field supervision statewide. As shown in the pie charts below, LSI-R offender assessments show that a sizeable percent of offenders are dissatisfied with their living accommodations – particularly for higher risk offenders.

Ex-Offenders in Employment, 2005

Currently, Iowa law lacks statutory language that would include Iowans with a criminal history as a protected class (this lack of coverage mirrors most of the nation). However, Iowa has been shown to parallel EEOC guidance that states that an employer may exclude an individual from employment on the basis of a conviction record only if the employer’s decision was “justified by business necessity.”

A violência na ótica de alunos adolescentes do Distrito Federal

Esta pesquisa exploratória teve como objetivo captar as percepções de adolescentes matriculados em estabelecimentos educacionais do Distrito Federal sobre as violências nas escolas e nas comunidades. Considerando que a literatura constata que as violências são comuns às escolas públicas e particulares, embora com diferentes ocorrências, o trabalho focalizou em particular as diferenças entre alunos dos dois tipos de escolas. Para tanto foi utilizada a técnica de grupos focais. Os resultados indicam que, embora se confirme a presença de violências nas escolas públicas e particulares, cada uma é tratada de modo diferente, as primeiras apoiando-se, em parte, no trabalho da polícia, e as últimas mantendo controle preventivo de pessoas e seus movimentos. As conclusões remetem às teorias sociológicas conflituais da Sociologia da Educação e ao seu maior poder explicativo. Enfatizam a necessidade de a escola considerar as sociedades dos adolescentes e o seu protagonismo e dinamismo próprios, abrindo os olhos para as mudanças dentro de si e ao seu redor.

Melhoria do desempenho cognitivo dos alunos do ensino fundamental

Este artigo introduz um modelo conceitual que relaciona fatores intra e extra-escolares a uma medida de desempenho cognitivo dos alunos. Com a ajuda desse esquema revisam-se as evidências presentes na literatura educacional sobre as possibilidades de melhoria dos resultados cognitivos dos alunos do ensino fundamental. Muitos dos resultados das pesquisas relatadas na literatura internacional não foram validados por estudos empíricos no Brasil até o momento. Os melhores dados para estudo do assunto disponíveis no país são os do Sistema Nacional de Avaliação da Educação Básica - Saeb, que têm muitas limitações. No entanto, já é possível garantir que, considerando o nível atual do desempenho dos alunos, há ações que podem ser realizadas no nível da escola com grande potencial de melhoria das proficiências dos alunos. Assim, neste momento, é preciso enfatizar as políticas escolares, tendo em vista que elas só serão viáveis com a implantação da autonomia das escolas, preceito já estabelecido em lei, mas ainda não completamente implementado.

Qual pedagogia para aos alunos em dificuldade escolar?

Repetir o ano não ajuda os alunos com dificuldades. Numerosas pesquisas sobre os efeitos da repetência mostram que em regra geral os alunos fracos que recomeçam o mesmo ano progridem menos que os alunos fracos que são promovidos. Que medidas pedagógicas são necessárias para combater o fracasso escolar? O objetivo deste artigo é proceder a uma revisão do que as pesquisas empíricas revelam sobre os procedimentos mais freqüentemente mencionados como meios de obter um aperfeiçoamento pedagógico. Os primeiros dizem respeito à composição e ao manejo de turmas homogêneas e heterogêneas, de classes grandes ou pequenas, e de grupos de alunos com necessidades específicas; os segundos remetem aos dispositivos de individualização da aprendizagem ou à estratégia oposta, de aprendizagem cooperativa e tutoral; os terceiros são relativos à avaliações formativas, seguidas ou não de ações corretivas. Discutindo o conjunto dos resultados, o autor defende um redirecionamento das pesquisas pedagógicas no sentido de investigar prioritariamente os procedimentos mais genéricos, deixando para casos extremos a mobilização de dispositivos baseados num diagnóstico fino das dificuldades de aprendizagem.

Procedure for human saphenous veins ex vivo perfusion and external reinforcement.

The mainstay of contemporary therapies for extensive occlusive arterial disease is venous bypass graft. However, its durability is threatened by intimal hyperplasia (IH) that eventually leads to vessel occlusion and graft failure. Mechanical forces, particularly low shear stress and high wall tension, are thought to initiate and to sustain these cellular and molecular changes, but their exact contribution remains to be unraveled. To selectively evaluate the role of pressure and shear stress on the biology of IH, an ex vivo perfusion system (EVPS) was created to perfuse segments of human saphenous veins under arterial regimen (high shear stress and high pressure). Further technical innovations allowed the simultaneous perfusion of two segments from the same vein, one reinforced with an external mesh. Veins were harvested using a no-touch technique and immediately transferred to the laboratory for assembly in the EVPS. One segment of the freshly isolated vein was not perfused (control, day 0). The two others segments were perfused for up to 7 days, one being completely sheltered with a 4 mm (diameter) external mesh. The pressure, flow velocity, and pulse rate were continuously monitored and adjusted to mimic the hemodynamic conditions prevailing in the femoral artery. Upon completion of the perfusion, veins were dismounted and used for histological and molecular analysis. Under ex vivo conditions, high pressure perfusion (arterial, mean = 100 mm Hg) is sufficient to generate IH and remodeling of human veins. These alterations are reduced in the presence of an external polyester mesh.
